Abstract

Construction of a Turbo code interleaver for blocks of any size is facilitated by partitioning the block into co-sets of predetermined size, permuting each co-set with an interleaver whose parameters are selected and optimized for the predetermined size, and recombining the elements of the permuted co-sets according to a predetermined order. Partitioning of the block into co-sets is accomplished by choosing a value n for the number of co-set, and assigning to each co-set those positions of the block having a common value for modulo-n of the block size. The permuted output may be punctured to maintain a desired ratio.
